Sometimes lesser-known players get injured during training camp and fans don’t even seem to notice. But sometimes one of the stars gets injured and, even if it’s a minor injury, it freaks everyone out.
Andre Johnson’s Finger Injury Will Only Keep Him Out ‘A Day Or Two’
Andre Johnson suffered a dislocated finger in Texans training camp but he’ll only be out for a day or two.
That's the case with Houston Texans WR Andre Johnson. According to the AP, he left Texans training camp practice with a dislocated finger.
Johnson was running a slant route in an individual drill Tuesday and leaped to catch a pass, with rookie cornerback Rashad Carmichael defending. Johnson couldn’t make the catch and came down shaking his left hand. He took off his glove and walked to the sideline, where a trainer examined him.
The story says he was then carted from the field so you get a situation where folks are wondering why Johnson was "carted off the field." He wasn't really carted off -- it's just a finger -- but it's still concerning to see one of the top receivers leave camp with an injury. As Battle Red Blog says: 'Crisis averted.'
There’s no update on how long it’ll keep him out.
